A local who lives and loves Venice - Elisabetta was a informative, flexible and friendly guide! She is truly a local and her knowledge of Venice is extensive! She is warm, friendly and worth the expense of a private tour!

Masterful Venice tour guide! - Elisabetta Amadi is the real deal. This was my first time in Venice and I was very fortunate to be a part of her tours of the city during my visit. I have had Elisabetta as a tour guide before outside of Venice with group tours, and based on my wonderful excperiences then, I was so delighted to be able to have her guide me in touring and navigating her native and home city of Venice. She is extremely knowledgeable about Venice; the city, the culture, the people and it's history. As a first time visitor, she will guide you and give you important tips and tricks of navigating the city along with the "dos and don't". She also is very kind and helpful answering any questions you may have with a professional, delightful and caring manner. I highly recommend Elisabetta Amadi for your tour guide needs!

Book Elisabetta immediately!!! - This is the second time with Elisabetta as my guide and I wouldn’t go with anyone else. She is absolutely amazing at her job. Super knowledgeable about a range of European history and culture; especially in Venice. Personable beyond belief. Fun. A great sense of humour. And above all, she has a way of making you comfortable no matter how different the culture and people are from what you are used to. I cannot recommend her enough. Thank you Elisabetta!

Elisabetta Tour Guide Venice - Elisabetta Amadi is the Real Deal - a true Venetian! She is very knowledgeable and explains complex history, architecture, culture, art, and current evets with ease. She is personable, attractive, energetic, and fun. Our group of 5 adults waked with Elisabetta through several sestieri areas, seeing many sites, beautiful backstreets and small canals as we enjoyed snacking on Cicchetti and drinking regional wines along the way. I highly recommend Elisabetta as your guide to make your Venice visit a memorable one (venicewithbetty.com)

Superb Introduction to Venice - Elizabetta was warm and gracious. He knowledge is vast and she makes the history of Venice come alive. She showed us some very “un-touristy” things to do and places to eat. We highly recommend spending some of your time in Venice with Elizabetta.

Great tour with Elisabetta - I highly recommend booking a city tour with Elisabetta as soon as you arrive in Venice. She is so full of knowledge of the city and its history. You can do the main sights on your own with headsets. It is much better to get the overall experience of Venice with Elisabetta.

Wonderful and welcoming tour of Venice - Elisabetta was a superb guide. She was super friendly, flexible, helpful and accommodating when our children (3 and 6) threw a curve ball at the original plan. We got a great feel of the local culture and Elisabetta was very knowledgable of Venice and it's history. We would highly recommend a tour with Elisabetta!

Best guide for a tour in Venice! - Elisabeth was a wonderful guide! She told us all the wonderful history of Venice, talked to us about the culture and what it's like to live in Venice and showed us the best places to visit fir dining and shops (and which to avoid). We actually did two tours with Elizabeth's, a Cincetti dining and a tour of the city and the basilica. If we're ever in Venice again, we can't wait to follow up with her.
